NeeDe Taken to Joliet.

Chicago, ILL.,, September 27.-OscSr
Neebe, the anarchist, is In Jsliet. None
of his friends knew he was TO be taken
away so suddenly, and to none of them did
he say goodbye. At o'clock last nigh.
a coupe driven by deputy sheriff stopped
In the shadow Of the criminal court build
ing, and Deputy Sheriffs Gleason, Spears
and Hubbard alighted and went into the
Jail. Ben Price, the Jail clerk was waiting
for them. They understood each other,
and without any more ado Price unlocked
the inner door, and, followed by Gleason
and Spears, tramped up the iron stairway
to the second gallery, where the condemn
ed anarchists are. Lights were burning in
all the cells. Neebe's cell door was unlock
ed, and Spears told him he wanted to talk
with him in the Jail Office. The party
then went quietly down stairs. When the
Office door was closed Spears said:
swell, Neebe, we are going to take you
to Joliet tonight"
"Can't / see my friends? Can't see my
lawyer, Capt. Black ?" ejaoulsted Neebe, in
tone of surprise.
"No."
He then asked to be allowed to change
his clothes. A turnkey brought down his
best suit of clothes and clean linen. He put
them on, then held out his wrists for the
manacles with which Gleason had been
playing. He was first handcufed alone,
and then the deputy sherifs changed their
minds and chained his right wrist to Spears
left. The party then left the Jail. Gleason
told the guards at the Jail to lock the door
and keep the reporters back. They did so,
and imprisoned them for several minutes
and until the Carriage was well on its way
to the Chicago & Alton railroad.
When delayed reporter reached that
depot he found that the fast express for St.
Louis was just pulling out. The Neebe
party were aboard. The train arrived at
Joliet at 1895 and the prisoner was at
once hurried to the prison. A telegram
had told Warden McClaughrey that Neebe
was coming. Deputy Hubbard did not go
10 Joliet. He stated that the sheriff had
thought best to have Neebe taken to Joliet
secretly, for fear of an outbreak and an at
Tempt at rescue.

Dire Threats by The Anarchists.
Wives.

New York, September 27.-"If those
men are hanged, their wives will kill their
children and then commit suicide" said
Mrs. Capt. Black to a reporter yesterday.
"Nina Vsn Zandt has frequently assured
me that If her husband, August Spies, goes
to the scaffold, she will die by her own
hand the same hour. The other women
tell me the same thing"
And as Mrs. Black said this she looked
as though she firmly believed that these
women would carry out their terrible
threats should their husbands pay the pen
atty of their crime "To let the men live''
continued Mrs. Black, "wilslnot result dis
astrously, as some people pretend to think,
but if they are hanged, Grinnell, Bon6eld
and Judge Gary are not safe. AS Citizen
Train says, there will be sheol to pay"
Chicago, ILL.,, Sept. 27.-"No answer"
Such was response reporter received to
a message he sent to the condemned an
archists in the county Jail, desiring to know
If they had anything to say In reference to
a dispatch from New York, which repre-
sented Mrs. w. p. Black as saying that
their wives had resolved as soon as they
were executed to murder their children
and then commit suicide themselves, and
that Miss Nina Van Zandt had expressed
the determination to die at the same hour
that August Spies did, and so on. The re-
porter had to act through the Jail officials
in communication with the anarchists, so
strict is the watch now kept over them.
Sheriff Matson has given strict orders that
no one be allowed to see them, and they
have themselves requested that no news
paper intruders be allowed to approach
their cells,

"1NSPIRED BY THE DEVIL"
What Capt. Dixon Says of OppO-
sitiOn to the Salvation Army.
New York Herald.

New York Herald.
Mrs. Capt. Dixon, the officer in
command of the Salvation Army bar
racks on North Russell street, told a
Herald reporter yesterday that there
was really no ground for the conf
plant made to the board of aldermen
this week against the army by certain
residents of the neighborhOod through
which the soldiers march every night
to gather sinners into the tabernacle.
She felt sure that the people who
lodged the complaint had been made
the instruments of the devil, and that
therefore. their case would fall to the
ground. Mrs. Dixon was transferred
from the Army of the Connecticut to
the command of The Boston garrison
several weeks ago, and since that time
the military dicipline of 10 or 50 SOL
diers quartered in the Russell street
hall had been perfect. They marched
out at 7:30 o'clock, and returned in
good order after short parade. The
musicians carried three drums, but
these could disturb no one. The state
ment presented to the aldermen that
the noise was kept up late at night
had no foundation in truth. Capt.
Dixon said that several young persons
belonging to the corps were taking
lessons on the cornet, but as yet they
had done nothing more than give that
instrument a few desultory toots,
which caused no alarm in the COM
munity. The lad with the big drum"
as Mrs. Dixon described her chief
drummer, occasionally, during the
chorus singing in the early evening
service in the hall, gave his parchment
a few taps by way of adding zest to
the gloritication but these were not
audible outside of the hall, and no.
body could object to it. Capt. Dixon
said the devil had made several at
tempts to stop the Salvation Army's
parades in other places, but God had
stood by them, and no harm befel
them then, and she felt it could not

tached to the petition were mostly |
those of people whom she took to be
Roman Catholics. In Boston rum
and Romanism, she claimed were so
closely allied that the influence Of the
denomination could be easily turned
against the army, because salvation
principles were opposed to saloons.
But even now, she added, the Saliva
ton Army is at work in the very city
of the Pope, and will ultimately evan
yelize Rome. When asked if the
with drums was essential to
he business of the army, Capt. Dixon
'aid that Americans are ''frOthy
md efervescent people" they are
,asily carried away by show and those
Kings which play upon their nerves.
The parade of Salvationists had, there
ore, tendency to draw them away
rom the theatres and other frivolous
diversions, and if they but followed
nto the barracks, where they could
lear the word, there was a chance for
heir salvation being achieved.

Gen. Hawley to Be Married Again.

New York World.
The announcement made of the en-.
gagement of Senator Joseph r. Haw.
ley and Miss Edith Horner, now of
Philadelphia and recently of England,
will attract unusual interest and wide
spread congratulation. Philadelphia
has for ten years held Gen. Hawley
in grateful and appreciative recollec-
ton for his service during the Centen-
NAL Exposition, to which he gave his
time, his labor and his enthusiastic
devotion in unstinted measure.
Miss Horner has been for the past
four years the associate and assistant
of Miss Fisher in the management
and direction of the corps of nurses at
Blockley Almshouse. Miss Horner
began her most successful labors here
after careful training in England and
practical experience in the care of the
sick and wounded during the Zulu
and Egyptians wars. She spent the
summer on a visit to her family place
in one of the countries near London,
and Gen. Hawley's acquaintance with
her beginning with the outward voyage
was continued during their stay in
England, and ended in the engage.
ment announced to-day. Both re-
turned to this country on the same
steamer, landing last week and COM
ing to this city during the centennial
celebration. At the closing exercises,
and at the dinner at the Academy of
Music, Gen. Hawley was a ccnspicu-
GUS figure.

The Newest Freak i'm Hats.

The latest freak in women's hats,
appeared on Twenty-third street Sat-
urday. 1t was the ordinary white
sailor hat trimmed with two or three
yards of colored yelling, one end tied
around the hat for a band and the
rest streaming nearly down to the
ground. The correct way to carry
the arrangement is over the shoulder
and down in front, as fur boas were
worn last winter. When the wind
blows it loose it looks as though the
women were unraveling.

Further Examination of DR.. Kempster In
the Lunacy Procee dings.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 8-The examination
OF DR.. Kempster was resumed to-day in
the lunacy proceedings against Mrs. EN-
mons. He said he saw Mrs. Emmons in
December last on board the steamship
Lydian Monarch, at New York, in the
presence of her husband and DR.. Hamll-
ton. Her conversation was dIscon-
nected and she at times became
excited. Her husband spoke of her
going TO Washington and she said "No,
will cut my throat here and now, on
the deck of this vessel rather than re-
turn to your home" Then at another
momen. she said to her husband: "Yuu
know that you had a commission OF
lunacy on the car that brought me from
Washington to Jersey City, and the
whole car was packed with detectives"
afterwards, my dear, l knew about
the gentleman on the car" replied her
husband. SAe thereupon looked him
st-aiglt in the eyes and said: "You are
a damned liar.n
Afterwards she chatted pleasantly, and
when her husband asked, "What do YOU
propose to do?" she said: Frank, l

TWO OLD MEN.
Perry and Price Found Dead in Phil.
adelphia Rattle-Trap Prove to
Have Been Rich.
Gold, Bank Notes, Mortgages and Deeds
in Value Reaching a Large Amount
Found IN the Shanty.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Jan. S.-A search
to-day Of the house where the two old
/ men, James Perry and Richard Price,
were found lying dead yesterday brought
| to light large amount of hidden treas
ure. Perry was the one who owned all
the riches. He retired from a
firm of auctioneers several years ago
| with independent means, and took
| Price, who was his cousin, as compan-
| ion. He was q closet listed man, and
scarcely allowed himself the uecessaries
of life. The house, No. 1925 Locust
street, where the two old men lived, and
where they were found yesterday lying on
| the floor, dead, is q delapitated two-story
frame structure, and its interior was even
more wretched than its outward appear
ance. Its occupants never held any COM
munication with their neighbors, but the
neighbors on one or two occasions mani
tested an interest in them far enough to
make complaint to the board
of health OF their ffightful
filth. Both old men appeared
On the street clad as beggsrs, and always
looked half-starved, wretched, drunken
aud besotted. In an undertaker's estab-
lishment the bodies lay to-day, ghastly
IN death. Their appearance was revolt
ing, and showed frightful con-
dttion of personal neglect. post
mOrtem examination was made to-
day, and the inquest will be held
Monday. This afternoon the coroner's
messengers, with three distant relatives
of Perry and lawyer, began the search
of the filthy old house. They began in
the second story front room and before
they had proceeded far in their hunt they
unearthed substantial evidences of hidden
wealth. Removing q filthy coverlet
from the bed an old dirty piece of paper
was found containing bark notes amount
ing to S131. A small purse vas next dis
covered which contained $40 in gold. An
old dirty canvass bag had $500 t. gold
coin,a and in new gold certificates were
wrapped in q piece CT filthy cloth
Another bed IN the room was searched
and the first thing round was $500 in
$50 gold certificates wrapped as the
other in old rags and paper, and stuck
under the cover of the mattress. An old
rag tied around the bed post was found to
contain $940 in gold pieces. In addition
to the Packages containing the money
great piles of paper were brought out in
old musty bCX-s. Thy contained deeds
to property, mortgages, bank books, in
surance policy, ground rents, and other
valuable documents.

PracrciDg 1t.
NEW HAVEN, Conn, Jan. SIN the
city court this morning Judge Pickett
rendered decision in the case of Will
lam H. Wallace, assistant superintendent
of the New York, New Haven and Hart
ford Railroad, and Stacy B. Opdyke, su-
perintendent of the New Haven and
Northampton Railroad. accused of con-
spiracy by Thomas Meany, who charged
them with blacklisting him. The &C.
cused were fined $50 each. In his de-
cision, be said that he was clearly
of the opinion that the conspiracy was
designed to hinder any man from putting
his labor on the market when, where and
for such compensation as, he nay, aIreA
for. II is equally criminal with any con
spiracy designed to hinder the sale of
merchandise of eny producer or dealer
and is more disastrous in effect than any
other form of conspiracy except
that to take life. To convict
of such conspiracy, circumstantial evil
dence is competent and may be
conclusive. II is sufficient if it is shown
that parties lhad mutual understand
ing to common design aud the part
each wss to perform in the attainment
thereof. The court YVES satisfied that
Wallace and Opdyke had mutual
understanding that man not approved
by one shou'd not be employed by the
Other, and this was to all intents and
purposes boycott upon individuals.
